Dog Sitters in Boxmeer

Anouk and Nienke were fantastic House-sitters both so easy to get along with such lovely people, nothing was too much trouble they even did some weeding for us ! My Horse, Donkey and cat were very well looked after and it probably was a little challenging as we had so much rain. On our return the house was lovely and tidy sheets and towels all washed very organised. We would definitely recommend Anouk and Nienke as house-sitters. And would love to have them back in the future. Thank you both for looking after my house and animals so well and thank you for the cheese it was lovely. Suzie and Gary

Merel & Bas where the perfect sitters! They good well care with a lot of love for the dogs. I would definitely recommend them.

Wietske, Mark and family were attentive, kind and thoughful. The dogs absolutely loved them (espescially the kids). We knew that our puppies and our home was in great hands and felt very reassured. We would welcome they back anytime

Claire took care of our three guinea pigs wonderfully. One got ill just before she arrived and she nursed him really well while we were away, keeping us updated the whole time. She cleaned their enclosure impeccably and left our house clean and tidy! We would happily have her sit for us again and recommend her wholeheartedly to any pet parents around the world. Thank you Claire!

Vera looked after our English Bulldog for one night & everything went very smoothly. Vera was so sweet, very competent & organised & the communication was great!! We have no doubt that Basil was happy & well taken care of while we were away.

Henri and Annalies were great. Friendly and obvious dog lovers. Sacha, our 8 month old cocker, was recovering from a fractured scapula and they managed to cope with a dog who was meant to be restrained but wanted to run and play. If I have a comment, it is that they were too soft in that respect but I know how hard it is to enforce cage rest on a hyper active puppy. I don’t think it was clear from the outset that they would be bringing their own dog but he had a splendid temperament and helped Sacha socialise (as opposed to roughing up our older, very gentle spaniel, which was his previous form of interaction). The house was beautifully clean, the sheets and towels all laundered and milk etc left for our return. All in all very happy to ask them back if they are free in the future.

Really lovely couple, very tidy and clean, great communication about the cats and photos. It would be a pleasure to have them sit for our cats again.

Veronika and Oleksander are lovely people They take care for Noetje in the best way you can imagine. They keep us posted via txt and photos in WhatsApp. The house was left clean and tidy. Veronika even surprised us with a delicious meal waiting for us when we came home This was their 2nd sit for us and they are welcome to come another time

We are so grateful that zeewoi put us together with the delightful de Koning family. Initially we were concerned whether our house was sufficiently child-friendly - but Jacq and Paul's lovely daughters seem to have enjoyed their experience very much, and certainly bonded with the dogs! They are a wonderful couple and we felt totally confident leaving everything in their capable hands - even when the boiler blew up they saved the day, and everything in the freezer too! All the animals had obviously been very well cared for - especially the dogs who will miss all the fuss the girls gave them - I hope they will be able to come for another visit, even if they're not housesitting! We exchanged Whatsapp messages and photographs while we were away and it was lovely to see how well they were getting on. We have been very lucky to have such excellent housesitters, and hopefully we can also consider them to be our friends as well.

Manuela is a very sweet girl. She is social and kind to others. She helped my parents a lot (who live next door) and my mother really was a great fan of her. So she has good social skills. Manuela uses this site so she can find a place to stay, while she is looking for a job in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Europe. While she was staying in NL, she was following a study at the University. All that of course is not a problem at all; I realize that a lot of people here are using this site to find free or cheap accomodation. However this is a pet site, so the reliability and the quality of the petsitting should be the primary focus. 10 days before the sitting would take place, she informed me that she wouldn't be able to be present during the entire sit due to an in-person conference at the university that would last for a week. Of course this was less then ideal to me but since it was impossible to find another petsitter on such a short notice I went out of my way to find a replacement, and decided to pursue with her as my petsitter. However, half way during her stay she mentioned she would be gone for another week to do her exams at the university. So out of the entire month, she was only present for 50% of it. I had to make sure that I could find a replacement again. Luckily my stepdad was willing to take the care upon him. My pets are my babies so it is super important for me that the petsitter who applies for a period, actually is there the entire period. One of my cats, Frances was not eating well during her stay at my house. Of course that can happen; animals can get sick any time and that doesn't need to be a result of the care. However, my stepdad told me that the bowls in where the cats got their food in, were not clean and got dirty and even mold in it. When he stepped in and cleaned the bowls, Frances started eating again and after a couple of days he was back on his normal eating pattern. Another incident was with the rabbits, I gave her a manual in where I explicitly told her which veggies to give the rabbits and which not. I was not amused to see that she had fed them an entire plate of cut up carrots, while I had told her that they could only have a little piece of a carrot per day. My rabbits have supersensitive intestines and quickly to get gas problems. Carrots have a lot of sugar, so an entire plate can cause problems. Manuela did apply requests I made during my stay abroad; she did apply a spray against flies, when I asked her to and even washed one of the bunnies when that needed to happen. When I came home, I had to do some cleaning. Manuela hadn't noticed that the cats had been spraying on different places, including the kitchen counter and kitchen walls and cabinets. The state of the house was less important to me; I did notice she had cleaned the rabbit area very well so I was happy about that. I think Manuela did her best but just is a bit more casual about things then I would be.

Giulia and Cristina were absolutely lovely, very caring and genuine people- it was a pleasure to have them stay and take care of Saffy. We were really happy to meet them and hope they might be able to stay another time!

We loved having Lisette & Joop as sitters for our two cats. Planning and communication was easy, Aziraphale and Crowley were in great shape when we got back, and everything was tidy and clean. We'd gladly have them as sitters again.
